In order to assess whether IL-10-treated DC and present antigen both for priming of naı¨ve T cells as well as for elicitation of cell-mediated would also be able to induce tolerance in vivo we used a system of OVA-TCR-tg mice (DO11.10). immune responses. Since both mature DC and DC precursors are present in peripheral blood, we In these animals 40%–70% of all naı¨ve T cells express an ovalbumin-specific T cell receptor. To tested the hypothesis that circulating antigen-presenting cells may infiltrate inflamed skin and assess whether IL-10-treated DC would be able to prevent sensitization in these mice in vivo, thereby contribute to elicitation of antigen-specific cutaneous immune responses. For this purpose, murine bone-marrow derived DC were cultured fetal calf serum-free with GM-CSF/IL-4 and DC of various maturation stages were generated from murine bone marrow by culture in GM- treated with 30 ng rmIL-10 per ml starting at day 2 of culture. On day 5 cells were pulsed with CSF 6 IL–4 6 LPS and labeled with either a radioactive (51Cr) or a fluorescent (calcein) marker. 50 µg oxazolone (OVA) per ml. OVA-pulsed IL-10-DC and Ag-pulsed control DC, as well as Labeled DC were then injected i.v. into mice that were either sensitized and challenged with the unpulsed DC were injected into the tail vein of DO11.10 mice. Eight days later, mice were hapten oxazolone or challenged with the irritant phorbol ester PMA. Six hours later, ears and subcutaneously immunized with 30 µg OVA-peptide in IFA. Again 10 d later, total lymph node lymphatic organs were excised and analyzed for the presence of labeled DC. A small but significant cells (LNC) were harvested and restimulated with the OVA-peptide or a control peptide in vitro. immigration of circulating DC into inflamed skin was observed. No specific label was found in While good proliferative responses were observed in animals pretreated with Ag-pulsed DC or regional lymph nodes 6 h after injection, or in the skin after injection of nonviable DC or control unpulsed DC or even in controls that were only immunized subcutaneously, LNC from mice cells. DC extravasated into inflamed skin about five times more efficiently than into uninflamed that had received IL-10-treated Ag-pulsed DC showed only minimal response to peptide challenge. skin. Immature DC, generated by incubation in GM-CSF 1 IL-4 for 4 d, as well as the immature Thus pretreatment of OVA-tg mice with IL-10-DC prevents sensitization in vivo. To see, whether DC line XS52, homed most efficiently to sites of allergic contact dermatitis and less well to sites IL-10-DC can also downmodulate ongoing immune responses, DO11.10 mice were sensitized of irritant dermatitis. Preincubation of DC with TGFb1 further enhanced homing of immature by s.c. injection of OVA-peptide in IFA. Eight days later, T cells from sensitized tg-mice were DC to inflamed skin. Interestingly, mature DC lost their capacity to home to inflamed tissues. harvested and sorted for OVA-TCR T cells. Five 3106 of these T cells were injected i.v. into DC homing was observed as early as 2 h after oxazolone challenge and peaked at 6–8 h. normal BALB/C mice. Again 2 d later, these animals received either OVA-pulsed IL-10DC, Extravasation of DC into inflammatory skin sites was clearly detectable by confocal microscopy OVA-pulsed, or unpulsed control DC. Seven days later, total LNC from these animals were of anti-CD31-labeled cutaneous vessels and calcein-labeled DC. Thus, dendritic antigen-presenting harvested and restimulated with OVA peptide in vitro. LNC from animals from control mice cells extravasate from blood into inflamed skin and may thus play a role in elicitation or persistence showed a significant proliferation towards OVA peptide, while proliferation in T cells from mice of T cell-mediated skin disorders. pretreated with IL-10-DC was inhibited by 70%. These data indicate that IL-10-DC are able to downmodulate ongoing immune reactions in vivo. Further experiments are necessary to explain the mechanism of inhibition or tolerance in this system. 003 004 Anti-Tumor Immunity Induced by Immunization with RNA-Pulsed Epidermal Cells Dendritic Cells Function as Antigen-Presenting Cells in GM-CSF-Based Melanoma Vaccines R.
